What Causes Prolonged Intermittent Pain In Lower Abdomen?

I have had mild to moderate pain in my lower abdomen for about 2 months. The pain can come and go. I saw my OBGYN and had ultrasound done on my "girl parts". Everything looked healthy and normal. I saw a gp and a urine test Camry back with higher than normal white blood cells and a little blood. It did not test positive for a UTI. I don't know what to do from here. Could it be a galbladder issue?
